rvp2018: Kamikaze grotesque ideas that wont scale. Until you begin building high rises for the poor - you're wasting time, land and energy. Those houses near to be near their hustle....meaning near business district, industrial areas and upper class.
Otherwise youll create another Soweto problem.
now you are just making noise
The beauty about Ghana development is, we dont concentrate a lot of poor people into a huge area to create a kibera like king of problem or pipeline kind of mess...
We do it like the Americans do it..huge beautiful area with mansions and a few Affordable units that covers a lot of price ranges
rvp2018: Container city That is why your president has Nairobi as his north star. A used container is 1,000usd but that is not a house.
They are far beautiful and modern than leaving poor nairobians to live in nasty slum scrappers, zinc and mud houses without toilet and guess what, they are far more affordable
rvp2018: Mad cow - container houses? You cities are slumpolis. Not comparable to Kenya cities. Your housing problem is gigantic. You need to build brand new cities from the scratch. You cannot fix Accra. You'd have to do what Rwanda did...mass demolition and displacement of people.
Lunatic
Do these beautiful 12,000 dollars homes look slummy to you?
you are fuming at your mouth because there's no way that Kenya can solve it huge slum mess all around the country....
up to 7 million of nairobi 10 million dwellers are living in slums sitting on a piece of land and they cant afford to own a home and you call that a small problem?
obaaderemi: I wonder what is wrong with Ghanaian football these days. If the Ayew boys don't win it this time, it might well be over for Andre.
There's an ongoing battle between the sport ministry, the GFA and the Ghanaian populace on what needs to happen and no one wants to listen to anyone.... so football continues to see a decline.
rvp20182: Yes power has been restored. It made news because we are not Tanzania - where power blackouts are so common - lets not talk about Nigeria or Ghana.
Power do not go out for 3 days running, anywhere in Ghana.
popizaino: Personally, I don't like it because I don't think it's sustainable, too many fertile like for agriculture has given way for this expansion when it can be done above and conserve enough green space but if I talk just.30 will come for my head.
no one will come for your head but people deserve better housing than to live in flats ....
Having unmaintained flats like you see in pipeline and other slums in Nairobi is a mess that no human being deserve to live in.
Sure if you are given the chance, you will choose the houses in those buildings above an apartment in pipeline or other Kenyan slums.
You are just a fool and that is why you will even dream of comparing 100,000 metric tonnes capacity at kipevu to 6 million metric tonnes at Tema oil Refinery ...
Or even 230,000 metric tonnes at BOST Accra..
Just note that there are various sizes of tank and yours are the smallest
popizaino: I wonder too, the expansion/development is unprecedented. My only worry about this expansion is that they are drifting far away from the main CBD. You will burn more fuel trying to commute to the centre of the city.
for now, that's the only problem that may arise in the future...
I guess by the time it becomes a major issue, commuter rail will be working as planned.
I know numbers is not your thing but at least numbers dont lie
It is larger than Kipevu in storage capacity and it also has more loading arms and larger loading capacity than Kipevu...
474 million dollars Bulk oil terminal
When Dangote oil refinery comes on stream.... there will be a huge demand for storage facilities all across west Africa....
It is currently one of the largest Jetty in Africa with 18 inch pipelines to tank farms.... Fully automated to Discharge and load over 80,000 metric tonnes in 12 hours.
rvp2018: Let try Tema Oil terminal - Tankers: LOA 244 m., draft 9.6 m., depth 10.0 m. (tidal). Gas: LOA 244 m., draft 9.6 m., depth 10.0 m.
244M versus Kipevu 770M
Conclusion; New Kipevu is 3 times larger than Tema Oil terminal
You can see the joke that is Tema oil facility down here
That is quantum gas terminal ... Which has 55,000 metric tonnes capacity
You are lost ....
Tema Oil ABB jetty is 3 nautical miles offshore it has 2 bouy berths with 18.8m draft and 25m draft for ships 400 meters long tankers that carry 200,000 to 600,000 metric tonnes capacity ...
It has an onshore tank farm capacity of 3 million metric tonnes for crude oil discharge.. 2.6 million tonnes for Gas to VRA This is almost 60 times larger than your Kipevu
2. BOST has a 230,000 metric tonnes tank farm and jetty which is also larger than your kipevu..
Like I said... Your country is a child in all things petroleum.
You kipevu terminal has only 100,000 metric tonnes capacity and you are here making noise ....
Shma: You're just bamboozled by facts. Your puny brain has failed you big time. But at least you've tried, you're not like samboro- the dumbest human in nairaland. Retail space once again, does not equate to the entire economy of a country.

You keep posting nonsense
Post something with sense that shows that you even understand the things you want to speak to... Then I'll find you worthy to engage
popizaino: You love to live in condominiums,others want their privacy, at the end of the day, no one is superior to one another,it's just a choice. Enjoy Ghana single homes as far as your eyes can see.
Shma: Don't bring any bs again. Your zoo is tiny - with tonnes of gold. You should be playing at SA level, but now, you're still mingling with niger on underdevelopment and insignificancy.
we are already playing at that level in almost all things
Shma: Economy cuts across both the consumer and the retailer - I hope you understand microeconomics. The retailer needs to be satisfied for a business to run. Remember the consumers - or rather the customers are the backbone of the any business - it's all about the customer and not you as a retailer.
GDP per capita in purchasing power parity is calculated with the total population, Where: purchasing power rate is divided by the country's total population.
PPP by itself in GDP (INT$ at PPP) has nothing to do with population, why are you struggling to reason?
Your GDP per capita is wrong. Go and get your facts right. We're in 2022, stop peddling bs.
